I'll admit I thought OKC's repeat was written in stone. I thought the Spurs were a year away. Huge game 1 win.

Career-wise LeBron is probably on par with someone like AC Green or Alex English. Pretty good players in the 80s that would dominate the soft NBA today

What the frick? This has to be trolling. LeBron is at worst the 2nd best player of all time. The fact that you're comparing him AC Green is ridiculous.

I remember when him and his twin brother were major recruits for Stanford basketball.

---

I remember in my teenage years Stanford signing them out of Harvard Westlake (I think?). My dad and I had been going to Stanford basketball games for years. Once we saw they signed, we were like "Oh shite, we might get to the next level"

Well Jason was injured his frosh year, and only Jarron played. They made the final four that year. They never got back to the final four, but in college, Jason was a more dynamic player than Jarron. Jarron was no slouch, though.

Jason had some incredible games at Stanford. I thought he would be better at the NBA level than he was. I think he just didn't have the otherworldly athleticism that makes you a good player in the NBA.

Him being the first openly gay active player in NBA history is pretty incredible, and important. We may not see another again for a while, but to be the first anything...man on the moon...maker of croissants...I don't give a frick...it's impressive and takes a lot of courage. A lot of people hate change, and to risk a VERY lucrative career to stay true to yourself is amazing.

Also, if you haven't read his story about having the glioblastoma and going to Singapore to get experimental treatment, you should. He was really intelligent dude. That disease, also, is absolutely horrific. One of the worst.

I'd die of hantavirus to own the libs.

Michael...Bolton?

Calling the foul on Smart while Reaves gets tricked by SGA. I can't believe I'm rooting for the Lakers

It reminds me of "Jiro Dreams of Sushi". It's about a sushi chef that devotes his life completely to one thing. I felt sad for him at times, but, if that's what makes you happy...I guess it's good?

Stop with this madness. We had an entire era with the Pistons and Spurs running things. With no huge stars on either team.

Just the absolute peak blend of post hardcore and melodic emo. I hate using the word emo, but frick it we're doing it live. The amount of hits on this is astounding.

Joke was mid. Not bad, not good. Serviceably mid. No audible laughter, but I got what she was going for.
